Mechanical-production aspects of Rincon Island development
Design of artificial island for development of oil field off California Coast involved study of prevailing winds, surface currents and wave heights; using weather data, model studies were made; island consists of rock revetment with internal sand core and with protective armor rock on outside; trestleway built of pipe pile and steel frame; drilling and production facilities.
